Airspace Analyst Jobs (NOW HIRING)

The Quality Assurance & Advocacy Lead Analyst investigates customer escalations, analyzes operational data to spot trends, and drives corrective and preventive action across Operations to protect the reliability Airspace's clients depend on for their most time-critical shipments. This role is a fit for someone who's analytical and detail-driven, comfortable turning data into root-cause findings and clear documentation, and confident delivering feedback and performance reviews to Operations Leadership and Account Managers — someone who wants to build a quality-first culture, not just enforce one.

Including but not limited to:

• Support CAPA/shipment investigations — root cause analysis and corrective action implementation, and help review and report on trends.
• Investigate and resolve complex escalations; identify customer trends, quality concerns, and operational gaps to drive continuous improvement and risk mitigation.
• Provide recommendations to continuously improve procedures and policies throughout the organization.
• Analyze calls and provide feedback to ensure Operations Specialists are delivering the best communication to Airspace clients.
• Research customer satisfaction issues, develop corrective action plans, and monitor results through to closure.
• Onboard new hires into ZenQMS under the QMS function, including setting up their reporting lines, and assist the QMS Manager with other tasks as needed.
• Assist with customer error codes.
• Perform additional duties and responsibilities as assigned by the Director of QA&A, Sr. Manager of QMS, and/or Chief Business Officer.
• Maintain expertise across all Airspace Sectors and Subsectors:

Industrials

• Aerospace & Defense
• High Tech
• Manufacturing & Industrials
• 3PL & Other

Healthcare

• Lifesciences
• Health Systems & Labs
• Medical Devices

• Minimum of 5 years' experience in a QA&A Analyst, Customer Advocate, Lead, or Sr. QA&A department position, or any of the following:
• 5+ years of experience in Airspace Operations, with at least 2 years' experience in an Operations Management role.
• 7+ years' experience in the Industry with a competitor, with at least 4 years' experience in an Operations Management, Quality Assurance role, or Customer Advocate position.
  

Technical skills/knowledge:

Mastery of 5-Why Principles and Analysis, most critically identifying root causes and the development and implementation of solutions (corrective actions & preventative actions).

• ZenQMS for documenting audits, findings, and corrective/preventive action plans.
• Zendesk for ticket management and escalations, especially for analysts with a Primary Sector assignment.
• WorkRamp for completing the required Guide/Pathway training for Quality Assurance Management & Advocacy.
• Working knowledge of the live order/shipment tracking system needed to conduct real-time order analysis.
• Familiarity with the call monitoring/recording system used to review Operations Specialist client communication.

Non-technical skills/qualities:

• Delivers clear feedback via ZenQMS on call quality (Twilio calls), customer complaints, coaching
• Juggles live order monitoring, call reviews, open investigations, and cross-sector requests without letting slower-burning work (like corrective action follow-through) fall through the cracks.
• Spots when a customer satisfaction issue points to a broader process gap and recommends policy or procedure changes company-wide.
• Understands Airspace's products, services, mission, and strategic goals well enough to judge whether a recommendation actually serves the business, not just the individual ticket.
• Drives corrective actions across Operations and other teams QA&A doesn't directly manage.
• Comfortable being assigned to a Primary Sector while remaining flexible to jump into any sector as operational needs shift, including extended hours, evenings, and weekends.
